A team of researchers from the International Iberian Nanotechnology Laboratory (INL) has reshaped the future of ...

Researchers developed a nanoscale quantum resonant tunnelling diode that mimics a sensory neuron, detecting light, processing ...

It affects your mood, your sleep, even your motivation to exercise. There's convincing evidence that it's the starting point for Parkinson's disease and could be responsible for long COVID's cognitive ...

Confocal micrograph of a peripheral sensory neuron in culture. Marker stains and antibodies are used to identify neurons (red), c-Fos protein (green) and nuclei (blue). Note the nuclear ...

National Institutes of Health researchers have mapped how individual neurons in the primary somatosensory cortex receive ...

There is a specialized subset of sensory neurons called nociceptors that are able to sense pain. These neurons are spread throughout our skin, our muscles, and in most of our internal organs.

The team next tracked sensory neurons to visualize their participation in tissue healing in mice. They observed that after injury, neuron endings grew in clusters around the damaged tissue, helping to ...

Receptor in the skin detects a stimulus (the change in temperature). Sensory neuron sends electrical impulses to a relay neuron, which is located in the spinal cord of the CNS. Relay neurons ...

The brain's ability to process information is known to be supported by intricate connections between different neuron ...

organic electrochemical neuron that has similar sensory responses to human neurons, according to a recent study. The development has the potential to propel the progress of intelligent robots ...

A new article expands our understanding of sensory neurons in the tentacles of sea anemones, linking them to kidney disease in humans through a common gene.
